Isaiæ 15

1 onus Moab quia nocte vastata est Ar Moab conticuit quia nocte vastatus est murus Moab conticuit

The burden of Moab. Surely Ar of Moab was destroied, and brought to silece in a night: surely Kir of Moab was destroied, and brought to silence in a night.

2 ascendit domus et Dibon ad excelsa in planctum super Nabo et super Medaba Moab ululabit in cunctis capitibus eius calvitium omnis barba radetur

He shall goe vp to the temple, and to Dibon to the hie places to weepe: for Nebo and for Medeba shall Moab howle: vpon all their heades shalbe baldnesse, and euery beard shauen.

3 in triviis eius accincti sunt sacco super tecta eius et in plateis eius omnis ululat descendit in fletum

In their streetes shall they bee gilded with sackecloth: on the toppes of their houses, and in their streetes euery one shall howle, and come downe with weeping.

4 clamavit Esebon et Eleale usque Iasa audita est vox eorum super hoc expediti Moab ululabunt anima eius ululabit sibi

And Heshbon shall crie, and Elealeh: their voyce shall bee heard vnto Iahaz: therefore the warriers of Moab shall showt: the soule of euery one shall lament in him selfe.

5 cor meum ad Moab clamabit vectes eius usque ad Segor vitulam conternantem per ascensum enim Luith flens ascendet et in via Oronaim clamorem contritionis levabunt

Mine heart shall crie for Moab: his fugitiues shall flee vnto Zoar, an heiffer of three yere olde: for they shall goe vp with weeping by the mounting vp of Luhith: and by the way of Horonaim they shall raise vp a crie of destruction.

6 aquae enim Nemrim desertae erunt quia aruit herba defecit germen viror omnis interiit

For the waters of Nimrim shall be dried vp: therefore the grasse is withered, the herbes consumed, and there was no greene herbe.

7 secundum magnitudinem operis et visitatio eorum ad torrentem salicum ducent eos

Therefore what euery man hath left, and their substance shall they beare to the brooke of the willowes.

8 quoniam circumiit clamor terminum Moab usque ad Gallim ululatus eius et usque ad puteum Helim clamor eius

For the crie went round about the borders of Moab: and the howling thereof vnto Eglaim, and the skriking thereof vnto Beer Elim,

9 quia aquae Dibon repletae sunt sanguine ponam enim super Dibon additamenta his qui fugerint de Moab leonem et reliquiis terrae

Because the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more vpon Dimon, euen lyons vpon him that escapeth of Moab, and to the remnant of the land.
